Jeff Green is back this week in his duties for Key Motorsports piloting the #40 Westerman Companies Chevrolet in this weekend's Qwik Liner Las Vegas 350 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. Green is looking to continue to build his impressive resume at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, but this time competing in the Truck series. This will be Green's first run in the Craftsman Truck series at Las Vegas Motor Speedway, and his fifth overall Truck series start. Green is emerging from the momentum that was gained as he drove the #40 to a hard fought 18th place finish at Gateway International Speedway. "I am eager and excited to be back in the #40 Chevrolet and am looking forward to competing in Las Vegas," states Green. "We had a strong showing at Gateway and we are looking to capitalize on that heading into Las Vegas." Building on weeks of momentum, Crew Chief Lance Hooper is also very eager to get to Las Vegas. "I am very excited about this weekend. The team has been continuously developing over the past month or so, and we have been learning a lot with Chad , Jeff and Paul . I am excited about the direction we are headed in." "We are headed to Las Vegas with Jeff driving and we are bringing our best equipment, so we are definitely looking forward to a great weekend." The #40 Key Motorsports Chevrolet will once again be sponsored by the Westerman Companies, which has had great success this season on the hood. The Westerman Companies Chevrolet raced in July's Power Stroke Diesel 200 at O'Reilly Raceway Park produced the season's best finish of 13th for Key Motorsports.
